What is new capacitene if a dielectric
of constant 6.7 complety filled between the plates
Answers
Answer:
capacitance= (K×e°× A)/d
therefore= (6.7 × 8.85× 10^-12× 4×10^-4)/ 2×10-3
capacitance= 118.59×10^-13
capacitance= 1.18 ×10^-11
Given: A parallel plate capacitor has a area of 4 cm^2 and a plate separation of 2mm.
To find: Calculate capacitance and the new capacitance if a dielectric of constant 6.7 is completely filled between the plates
Explanation: Area of plate= 4 cm^2
= 4 * 10^-4 m^2
( since 1 cm^2 = 10^-4 m^2)
Distance between plates= 2 mm
= 2* 10^-3 m
(since 1 mm = 10^-3 m)
Let area be denoted by a and distance be denoted by d.
The formula of capacitance is:
where e is permittivity in vacuum.
Using values above:
When a dielectric is filled completely, the permittivity increases by a factor which is equal to the dielectric constant of the new material.
New permittivity= ke= 6.7 e
New capacitance is given by:
The capacitance without dielectric is farad and capacitance with dielectric constant 6.7 is
farad.
